Where previous R.E.M. records captured a stripped-down, live sound, Out of Time was lush with sonic detail, featuring string sections, keyboards, mandolins, and cameos from everyone from rapper KRS-One to the B-52's' Kate Pierson.
The scope of R.E.M.'s ambitions is impressive, a sunny array of pop and folk songs as refreshing as Michael Stipe's decision to abandon explicitly political lyrics for the personal. The album turned the band into megastars with the success of their single "Losing My Religion".
This timeless R.E.M. album features the singles "Radio Song", "Belong", "Losing My Religion" and "Shiny Happy People".
25th Anniversary Edition. Heavyweight vinyl produced by Concord Music Group. Remastered from the original source tapes.
